Thoughts on Perl and Emacs, technology and writing

So Why is This Post on Ironman Perl?

Okay, I waded in too fast on Gabor’s post. Sorry Gabor. And you may be wondering who died and made me the Ironman Perl police1. No-one, but riddle me this: why is this WordPress related post on Perl Ironman?

It doesn’t have any perl related tags and neither was it posted in the perl category. I thought that perhaps there was a sneaky mention of Perl in the post. But no, find in page doesn’t pick anything up.

Apart from the blog title that is – Perls of Wisdom. Is the blog title included in the content that is checked for the word perl2?

1. No-one, I promise. In the next post hopefully I’ll be back to the occasionally useful perl snippets.

2. Although I guess it is reasonable not to think of this. Perl is not a dictionary word so you probably wouldn’t expect it in the name of a blog.

Tomorrow (Saturday 2010-11-20) there is the NWE.pm hackaton and one of the topics/challenges will be the improvement of the IronMan code: Projects/Ironman.
We will be hacking at the current code, improve it and possibly make sure that posts which do not really contain anything Perl-related will not appear on the feed.
If you would like to help us and contribute too, you can do that without having to physically come to Lancaster: check out Hackday/2010 and hopefully soon it will have the needed information to join us on IRC😉
